I was buying distilled water from two different sources and they were in plastic containers. They tasted plasticky as well. This is the reason I invested in a distiller and went through all this trouble. It's a heck of a lot easier to buy the stuff. Now I'm finding that the distiller is making water that tastes as bad as the store bought stuff Doris

Probably the local high-school chem department has some test gear, and certainly any chem teacher could whip something up with a cheap multimeter that would give you an idea. I expect that either there are some metals or plastics in the distilling machine that are contaminating the distillate or some other source; does it taste significantly different than distilled water bought at the grocery store?

Does anyone know how to change the taste so it's H2O? I filter it after with a charcoal filter and still yucky. I've cleaned it with vinegar and there is no buildup or anything. It's clean as a whistle. Will this taste eventually go away......... maybe after the 100th batch? Doris It's a Genesis 3000 All new Yahoo! Mail Get news delivered.
